There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Biomechanical factors play a key role in the cardiovascular system during vascular growth, vascular remodeling and in vascular disease progression. Developments in vascular imaging combined with advances in computational techniques enable identification of biomechanical parameters that play a role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. Advances in molecular techniques provide knowledge linking biomechanics and vascular biology, and open new avenues for therapeutic interventions.
